Rain Rain Go Away!

Things have literally been soaking wet here in Suzdal for the past few days. Going into the weekend I was so excited: the cover material arrived from France, I had put together the new basketball hoops and soccer nets, and we had cleared a mini football field out of the overgrown brush next to the new court. Unfortunately, a violent storm came through Suzdal and actually ripped off part of the roof at the school. Obviously this situation took precedent over the project and the principal and school teachers had to address the situation of the flooding classrooms. Fortunately, everything got repaired over the weekend! As far as the project goes, the rain has halted everything. The playground cover can not be applied to wet asphault. This morning the contruction crew arrived but, after seeing the puddles all over the asphault, they had to pack up and go home. Right now it is simply a waiting game. We need a day of beautiful sunshine to dry the asphault so that they can begin. I have been trapped indoors for the last few days during this storm and have tried searching for every solution to the rain problem but to no avail. No matter how hard I try... I just can't control the weather!!!!!! Hopefully the sun will visit Suzdal tomorrow and things can get cracking once again.
